Aluminum square fins (0.5 mm x 0.5 mm) of 1 cm length are
provided on the surface of an electronic semiconductor
device to carry 46 mW of energy generated by the electronic
device and the temperature at the surface of the device should
not exceed 80°C. The temperature of the surrounding medium
is 40°C. Thermal conductivity of aluminium =190 W/(mK) and
heat transfer coefficient h = 12.5 W/(m7K). Find number of fins
required to carry out the above duty. Neglect the heat loss
from the end of the fin.It is required to heat oil to about 300°C for frying purpose.
A laddle is used in the frying. The section of the handle is
5mmx18mm. The surroundings are at 30°C. The conductivity
of the material is 205 W/m°C. If the temperature at a
distance of 380 mm from the oil should not reach 40°C,
determine the convective heat transfer coefficient.Find out the amount of heat transferred through an iron fin of
length 50 mm, width 100 mm and thickness 5 mm. Assume
k = 210 W/m°C and h = 42 W/m”°C for the material of the fin
and the temperature at the base of the fin as 80°C. Also
determine the temperature at tip of the fin, if the atmosphere
temperature is 20°C.A turbine blade made of stainless steel (k = 29 W/m°C) is 60 mm
long, 500 mm’ cross-sectional area and 120 mm perimeter. The
temperature of the root of blade is 480°C and it is exposed to
products of combustion passing through the turbine at 820°C. If
the film coefficient between the blade and the combustion
| gases is 320 W/m?c, determine:
(i) The temperature at the middle of the blade;
(ii) The rate of heat flow from the blade.A motor body is 360 mm in diameter (outside) and
240 mm long. Its surface temperature should not exceed
55°C when dissipating 340 W. Longitudinal fins of 15 mm
thickness and 40 mm height are proposed. The
convection coefficient is 40 W/m?°C. Determine the
number of fins required. Atmospheric temperature is
30°C. Thermal conductivity = 40 W/m°c.
